Worship in person or online
You can worship in person or online. Worship begins at 9:30am Sundays. To worship online with your church family:
Children’s Church
After the children’s message, kids pre-K through 5th grade will move to their own time and space for faith formation. We’re using Road Trip—a creative and engaging curriculum that helps children explore faith in ways that connect to their everyday lives.
Adult Faith Formation | Spirituality of the Arts | November 2 Facilitator: Tim Goodwin
Spirituality of Church Musicians – Richard Collman and Joanne Rodland, to be held in the Sanctuary, organ side
All Saints Sunday | November 2
We will lift up and give thanks for those who have gone before us--people whose love and faith continues to shape our lives. We will light candles for them and lift up the quiet saints in our own lives whose light still flickers in our hearts. This will be a heart-felt service with celtic harp, organ, and bells.
